Contract extension in Ireland
Lufthansa has extended its cargo handling contract with Worldwide Flight Services (WFS) in Ireland. The airline was one of WFS' national launch customers in 2005 and its operations are supported by stations in Dublin, Cork and Shannon.
Lufthansa operates four daily flights between Dublin and Frankfurt, as well as twice-daily Dublin-Munich services. WFS also provides handling services for Lufthansa’s RFS from Ireland to Frankfurt, Manchester and London.
WFS' 4,500 sqm of warehouse space in the three airports incorporates the largest temperature-controlled facilities in Ireland. The company now handles over 40,000 t of cargo per annum for airline clients in the country, including Swiss International Air Lines, which has also renewed its handling contract in the past year.
